----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin McCormick" <martin@dc.cis.okstate.edu> To: <blinux-list@redhat.com> Sent: Friday, March 08, 2002 12:33 PM Subject: netrik was ( lynx-dev latest status on java script support? ) Has anyone gotten netrik to work? netrik is a new text browser which is free and open-source. You can read about it at http://netrik.sourceforge.net/ It has limited javascript support and will run in a text environment like lynx. Now for the bad news, at least so far. I have access to two different UNIX platforms. One is Debian Linux and the other is FreeBSD. The readme file with netrik says that it is designed to build on gnu linux systems. One should just type make and it will go. Well, on the FreeBSD system, it complains about 2 lines in the makefile not having arguments that they need. On the linux system, it says: cc -g -Wall -DDEBUG -DREADLINE '-DWGET_CMD="wget -nv -O- %s"' -c -o main.o main.c main.c:16: curses.h: No such file or directory main.c:22: readline/history.h: No such file or directory main.c:23: readline/readline.h: No such file or directory make: *** [main.o] Error 1 That error I understand in that I am missing a library containing the files that are listed as missing. The make file has an option to build on Solaris which is similar to FreeBSD so I tried that but with no luck either. Make just complained about the same two lines needing arguments. I have a feeling this is about to compile but I have either failed to set an environment variable or that I need to go get a library somewhere that contains the correct headers. This project sounds like the folks who are working on it are headed in the right direction so I am certainly willing to be patient and find out why it isn't compiling right now. The current version appears to be netrik-0.7.1.tar.gz I would certainly like to see it run and play with it a bit andfind out whether it might read some of our javascript-infested web sites we have here. They are not terribly complex or special except that they use javascript to set up the links and onclicks to tell the sites what link you want.
